I don't understand this type of behavior. Why would anyone think this is acceptable behavior?https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/minnesota-women-use-mace-on-store-security-during-black-friday-shoplifting-incident-police-say/ar-BBXH1Bf

Too many of the "talking heads" focus on gun violence while all the while ignoring the fact that it is violence itself that is infecting our society today. How else would one explain the internet videos of gangs of kid beating a single kid. I don't have a simple solution, but "gun control" isn't a solution. This should set off a sh*t storm.

Yep, very wrong. But, this is the latest form of shoplifting. Grab and dash. Load up a cart of expensive items and bolt for the door. Most security staff is unarmed and not much they can do.

Home Depot has taken a huge hit on big ticket items and one of the first to sound the alarm almost a year ago. There are tons of videos of their staff being punched, kicked, maced and even stabbed while trying to stop them. Google it.

Some of it ends up in pawn shops, but most of it is sold on-line. Even if caught, there's no punishment. And if they arm the staff and he/she harms or kills a shoplifter, they'll be sued for much more. What a world.

Well a "lady" has to protect herself.

Next she will be suing the store for manhandling her, 50/50 chance of winning.
Luckily she didn't seriously injure any of the security people.
MY true feelings are anything they should not be subject to prosecution for anything they do to stop a thief.
But that's not going to happen.

Call the police they will be there too help in 20 minutes, maybe.

Obviously, this isn't acceptable behavior, but when you're robbing a store, you don't want to be caught. I'm surprised they went back for their loot.

Uh, I don’t know. There has been a lot of indoctrination for many years. Reduction of morals for decades. So it has been predicted for years and expected to get worse. When you have no responsibility and no accountability along with expectations of you are owed everything because society has taught you that, these are the consequences. 30 year olds taking parents to court for child support because getting a job would interfere with them playing video games ... etc. end of rant.

Easy to explain. Due to the PC BS that has plaque our country, especially now, where any criticism, or condemnation of the criminal element is considered racist. They’re rarely held accountable, and they actually believe they are entitled.

Look what recently happened in NYC, where police were doused with water bottles, and hit with buckets full of water. Not one of the perps were arrested.

Unfortunately, it’s just going to get worse. Wait until our dim witted politicians give out reparations.

I guess they felt they were entitled to stolen property.

There is more than just that crime being committed.

The worse part is there in no level of expectation that it will stop. Their behavior is accepted.

Good luck calling the police. I read that 48% of police calls in Seattle are never responded to.

Social decay. The Left encourages it, embraces it. Look around.

There are bad people everywhere. People are too lazy to work so they skeam to get what they want and eventually break laws and harm other by doing it.
